weight loss and medicine

Postby katesmom » January 27th, 2009, 10:09 am

Hi,
Just wondered if anyone knew the effects of weight loss and taking meds...I have to take Percocet for a pinched nerve in my neck at night until I can get physical therapy for it...(About 2 weeks)

Will it stall weight loss???????

Help !!

I haven't had any personal experience but I think I remember others talking here about it stalling their loss until they could get off the meds. If it does, then hopefully when you stopped the meds you'd see some big losses for the next couple of weeks. Sorry you're having pain like that!

Percocet is a pain med. Shouldn't affect your loss in anyway... what may is your lack of mobility from the pain.

Hopefully you will bounce back soon.

Maybe I was thinking of corticosteroid-type medicines making you hold onto weight. Glad some people knew more than I did out!

Yeah, shouldn't affect you too much, but don't worry either way if it does. Just keep doing the plan and when you're back to "normal," things will adjust accordingly.

Feel better!

Thanks everybody for your input...
I am 100% compliant and don't fear it won't come off...Just being a little impatient I guess !
